Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains, in plain language, what information Korel Dentistry collects through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Who we are

Korel Dentistry is a family, cosmetic, and implant dental practice led by Dr. Yosuf Korel in El Cajon, CA. This Privacy Policy covers information collected through our website at koreldentistry.com. It does not cover the separate ways we handle your health records inside the office, which are described in our in-office notice explained further below.

Information we collect

We only collect what we need to respond to you and run our website. That includes:

• Details you enter in our contact or appointment forms, such as your name, phone number, and email address.
• Anything you choose to tell us in a message, such as the reason for your visit or a question about care.
• Basic website analytics, such as the pages you visit and the general device or browser you use, which help us understand how the site is working.

How we use your information

We use the information you share to:

• Respond to your questions and requests.
• Schedule appointments and provide the dental care you ask for.
• Improve our website and make it easier to use.

We do not sell your information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone. The details you share with us are used to serve you, not to be handed off for someone else's marketing.

When we share information

We share your information only when it is needed to provide your care, or when we are required to by law. We keep sharing to the minimum necessary and expect anyone who helps us operate to protect your information as carefully as we do.

Not a substitute for medical advice

The information on this website is for general education and is not a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a dentist or doctor. Our contact form is not monitored around the clock and should not be used for medical emergencies. If you are having a medical emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For an urgent dental concern, call us at (619) 444-3393.

Cookies and analytics

Like most websites, ours may use cookies and similar tools to help pages load correctly and to gather general, non-identifying statistics about how the site is used. You can adjust or block cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may work differently if you do.

Your choices

You are always in control of the information you share with us. You can ask what website information we hold about you, or ask us to update or delete it. Because we do not publish an email address, the best way to make a request is by phone at (619) 444-3393, and we will be glad to help.

A note about health information

Any protected health information we collect as part of your dental care is handled under our separate in-office HIPAA notice, which describes your rights and how your health records are protected. That notice is separate from this website policy. Please ask our front desk if you would like a copy.

Children

This website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the site. If you believe a child has provided us information through this website, please contact us and we will remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time as our website or practices change. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review it now and then so you stay informed.

How to contact us

If you have any questions about this policy or your information, we are happy to help. You can reach Korel Dentistry by phone at (619) 444-3393, or visit us at 1265 Avocado Ave, Suite 102, El Cajon, CA 92020.
